Dominic Solanke

[billythekid]

With Solanke signing a new 4 year deal last September, if our club don’t want to sell, wouldn’t think it makes much difference being January or the Summer.

In the Summer you would possibly have a better chance of finding a replacement, although a lot of other clubs will look for a regular scoring striker.

But finding a regular goalscorer like Solanke has been this season won’t be easy, unless our club take a chance on someone from the lower leagues.

Personally I hope Bill Foley sticks to his word that the door is shut and bolted.

I am sure that our brightest and best players would want to prove themselves on the biggest stage, which isn’t something we can offer. So it makes sense to sell on on the very best players when we can.

No one on here seems to begrudge Nathan Ake’s opportunity to go to Man City and I for one would be glad to see Solanke’s hard work rewarded by a move to a top club, with a decent fee in return.

Timing for us is everything though .Ake left as that dog season ended and our team of heroes had given up on each other and the manager …
Dom is in a purple patch as the team are …. We are seeing the fruits of AI ball , DOM is absolutely integral to it .
Now , if he himself knocks on the manager’s door and says he wants to go well we have to have that conversation…
But we shouldn’t prompt him in anyway .

As an aside to Solanke, according to the Echo today, the club are reluctant to let Kieffer Moore go.

This post has it about right !
It's about Not disrupting the team unless the player himself makes it necessary.

Funny Money aside...protecting Andoni's Grip on the Zip... is the Bizz !

Mark McAadam talking on Sky Sports just now. He seems to think Dom's going nowhere, "could go on to score another 12+ goals with Bournemouth and give Gareth Southgate a headache for his Euro selection."

Well I'd prefer Dom over Ollie Watkins any day.

Really?

I don't think Dom's going anywhere. Fletch told him " Have patience, you don't want to be the new Josh McQuoid". Dom replied "Who?" "Exactly" said Fletch
: )

Really?

Based on his England performances where he's looked rubbish IMO. I get that he's been playing loads better and banging them in for his club though.

Newcastle have no chance of buying anyone of Dom's value in this window, nor have Arsenal. FFP.

Is it 20% of the total or 20% of the total over the fee we paid?

I assumed the former but not sure.

Hmm. Wonder how true that is.. Unless we are reluctant without another striker coming in.

Moore wanted out in the last window, and I’m guessing wants out now

Did he? I thought his reluctance to go was the reason the deal for that Leicester guy fell through.

It was his refusal to go to Millwall. Proper Mexican standoff

I read somewhere that Newcastle United will bring in players on loan because of what Eddie mentioned.

From Saudi Arabia? That would be convenient but probably for a different thread.

Hmmm what's going on here then? Seems like a message is being sent to someone.
